A healthy root allows a tooth to be repaired, but what if the tooth and root are completely missing? Dental implants offer the best solution for a natural-looking smile and long-term oral health. Dental implants in some form or another have actually been around for thousands of years, going through many changes in materials and placement techniques. While ancient implants had questionable success rates, modern dental implants are made with titanium and ceramic materials that naturally fuse with the jawbone. Dental implants are therefore similar to hip or knee replacements and now have very high success rates. They strengthen the jawbone and prevent the type of bone loss that accelerates visible aging. Implants fix gaps between teeth, improving chewing, speech, and the quality of your smile. At Lakeside Dental in Folsom, we offer dental implants to replace one or more teeth. We also use implants to secure dentures, partials, and bridges. Our goal is to provide you with strong and stable support for a healthy and confident smile.
Installing Dental Implants
We’ve all seen dramatic and impressive before-and-after photos highlighting the good results with dental implants! Keep in mind that when it comes to dentistry, you really do get what you pay for. Quality implants made with precision and biocompatible materials, combined with dental experience, provide the long-term dental solution that you need. Lakeside Dental has the expertise to place your needed implants in two to three visits. After allowing time for full integration with the bone, your dental implants are fitted with natural-looking replacement teeth. Whether fixing one missing tooth or many, securing dentures or bridges, our dentist guarantees quality work that results in a strong, durable implant that looks beautiful too!
Are Dental Implants Right for You?
For traditional dental implants to be successful, you need to have enough jawbone to support an implant. If you don’t have enough bone, don’t worry! We have solutions for you! If you can afford the time required and want the improvement in jaw health that results, we can build up your jawbone with bone grafting. If you want a faster solution that takes advantage of the bone available, All-on-X is designed for patients with jawbone loss and eliminates the need for extensive bone grafting. Find out more here!
